H. Ersahan et al., DESULFURIZATION OF 2 TURKISH LIGNITES IN AN ENTRAINED FLOW REACTOR, Journal of analytical and applied pyrolysis, 44(1), 1997, pp. 65-74
Desulphurization of Balkaya and Bolu-Mengen lignites by flash pyrolysi
s in an entrained flow reactor under nitrogen atmosphere was investiga
ted. Experiments were conducted in a 450-750 degrees C temperature ran
ge. The change of sulphur types, the removal of total sulphur and vola
tile matter with pyrolysis temperature were found. The removal of the
total sulphur and the volatile matter for Balkaya lignite at 750 degre
es C were obtained as 42.2 and 72.7%, respectively, while these values
are 57.0 and 66.8% for Bolu-Mengen lignite at the same temperature. (
